An American missionary recently entered a r r;m at th Custom House at Constanti-

nople, valuing them at a certain amount, Blithe Turkish officials, who are in the practice ol affixing a sliding scale of valuation to suit themselves, regardless of invoices or otha of importors, appraised the Bibles at double the value placed upon them by the missionary, and demanded the ad valo-em duty of five per cent., on their valnatiep. In this dilemma, the missionary availed himself of a regulation of the Turkish law, which permits duties to be paid in kind, and raid them in Bibles, five out of every hundred. After that he had no more trouble. He paid what duty he liked. They war ted no more Bibles. Ecclesiastical . At an adjourned meeting of the Presbytery of Muncie.held on the 16th of June, in Elizabethtown, Ind., Mr. William M. Stryker was ordained and set apart to the work of the Gospel ministry, by the laying on of hands of the Presbytery, and was installed pastor of the united congregations of Union and Hopewell. Rev. A.

If convicted, the penalty is imprisonm ent for one or five years.

TOethodist Hymn Book.

From the New England correspondent of the Illinois Advocate, who seems to be one of the

Initiated, we learn several interesting particulars in reference to the new Methodist Hymn Book which will be soon forthcoming. The volume will be a large 16mo, of 715 pages, and contains 1143 hymns, including IS

or 20 doxologies. Of these, if I may trust a rather rapid counting, more than 500 or nearly

half of the whole, are from the pen of Charles

Wesley, about dO are John Wesley's and a number more are from other members of the "Wesley Family;" so that more than half of the whole are Wesleyan in origin, as well, as in sentiment. For the rest, the whole world of sacred poetry is laid nnder contribution; but Watts and Montgomery famished more than any others, the two together supplying nearly or quite 100. Very few are of American origin; but the names of Bryant, Pierpont.G. P. Morris, Gould, and perhaps some others are found on the list of authors. Weof course do not suppose it was any object with the compilers to make the book either American or anti-Ameri

can; but another fact, taken in counecion with the lack of American hymns, might seem to indicate that the committee, or editors, or publishers, or whoever else it may be that controls In this matter, are admirably free from any undue American sympathy. They persist in thrusting the letter v in such words as honor, favor, labor, odor, &c. To myself, this is passing strange! If the work was designed for the use of British Christians, this might not be objectionable; but, as it is for American use, where, we may safely say, not one in ten chooses to follow that old and obsolete mode of spelling these words, it is passing strange that the public taste in this thing cannot be gratified! Among the names of authors, (which I should have said are given, in connection with the index to the hymns,) I recoguize that of a single member of our own church, for a single hymn

only; and many, I think, will doubt the title of

that hvmn to so honorable a place. One En

glish Methodist, W. M. Bunting, contributes

two nymns. I have already expressed my opinion of the work, as a whole; as a matter of course, individuals may be expected to diffar much in their opinion of particular hymns. Probably every person of devotional habits, if inquiry were

made, would be found to have a "collection" of choice hymns or rather a selection the sentiments and language of which, in his hours of devotion and contemplation, are accustomed to "vibrate through his soul;" and most persons "of our Israel," I think, will find the hymns of their selection here. Of my own choice hymns, hewever, one or two, I am sorry to say, are misting; but I am not without hope that they may

I would like to give you some specimens of the improvements that have been made in many of the hymns, but they are too numerous. I will refer to one only. Every one is familiar with the c. u. hymn , beginning "Ye wretched, hungry, starving poor. Behold a royal feast, Where mercy spreads her bounteous store. For every humble guest." This, in the new book, is changed to a a. m . hymn, by little other alteration than throwing

out two explicit syllables from the first line of each verse. The above stauza in the new book, therefore, reads, "Ye wretched, starving poor, Behold a royal least," &c. Let the reader trv his skill un iK rt of th

hymn, and he will soon find that all the stanzas i

For the Indian American R ETIlOSPF.l TIO.V Still mem'ry loves, aye, loves full well, On scenes of early youth to dwell. When first my boyish heart became Fuel for love's consuming flame; And thongh that flame no longer burns Whene'er fond mem'ry backward turns Life's hurried current swifter flows, With transient heat my bosom glows. The lads around, in boyish pride, Had each a maiden at his side. One still remained, and only one, And so my choice was she or none. Now who, that does not really hate All woman-kind, could hesitate What choice to make; a fool might fly A girl's embrace, but never I. Her as a bard, must I describe, (Since 'lis the fashion of the tribe,) That fair one, who could once control The softer passion of the soul, Whose perfect face, whose perfect form, With rapture did my bosom warm, Whose witching smile and honied kiss Imparted more than human bliss. True, lavish nature had bestowed On her a liberal longitude: As that tall poplar waves on high, And seems to sweep the rocking sky, While yonder beach beneath its shade, Nods its less aspiring head: So did my Martha, fair and soft, A foot above me, tower aloft. But why that sneer that stifled laugh? That seem to say "too tall by half;" Is towering altitude a crime? Not so, for height but means sublime; You call sublime the mountain's brow, If whitened with eternal snow. Then why not her, with lofty head, In wealth of snow-white hair arrayed? To me it seemed a bounden duty To worship such celestial beauty; And oh, my heart in wild commotion, Rivalled e'en the purest devotion, When she and I composed a pair Of worshippers, engaged in prayer; Alike we turned our eyes above, She to the skies I to my love. On her complexion, tho' a sallow, (Remembering still that gold is yellow,) I gazed with such extatic pleasure, As misers view their golden treasure From her 6oft eye of heavenly blue, How cupid's darts at randow flew, My heart can well attest but stay A slight mistake her eyes were gray.

You ask me "had she luscious lips?" I answer such as could eclipse The most inviting pair beside; For none so long, so thick, so wide; They seemed to my poetic eye A natural breast-work, strong and high, Thrown round her mouth, that safe beneath Might lodge her few remaining teeth. Ye city belles, so trim and neat, With insect waist and Chinese feet. What care I tho' you scornful swell At Martha's waist, more tangible, Or laugh because perchance 'tis found

Her feet comprise a greater bound. I hold largo feet as but commanding Proof of strength of understanding. She ne'er like you exposed to show, At church those mounts of drifted snow Upon her breast; but envy hinted, Those mounts forgetful nature stinted; And what dame nature had forgotten, Art supplied with wads of cotton. This, the reason, she concealed, What fashion meant should be revealed. Laurel Manuscript.

FUN AND FANCY.

Perils of Sparking. Oh! once I knew a pretty girl, And Gosh, how I did love her! Her eyes were bright, her hair did curl, I could prize none above'her. But when I went down on my knees, To tell her my sad case, She said, "you fool, you cannot please And slapped me in the face. And then she hauled me off the floor, And after a short tussle, She sent me flying through the door, With a kick on the Bustle! And now I have arrived safe home I find to go a larking Will never do so I won't roam Among the girls a sparking!
